However, there is currently one package tied in with the new \u201cWizarding World of Harry Potter\u201d \u2013 a new section of the park set to open in a few months. For $285 per adult, you can get a four night stay at a local hotel near the park and admission to the park. At the high end of the Universal Orlando packages are stays at hotels on Universal property and a number of what are known as \u201cPotter extras\u201d \u2013 little souvenirs and other such things to make your stay special; this will run you $645 for each adult. In the \u201cWizarding World\u201d will be two roller coasters, which will add to those already in the park.<\/p>\n<p>Any talk of Universal Studios vacation packages aimed at the lovers of roller coasters has to start with \u201cThe Incredible Hulk\u201d; it\u2019s rated as one of the ten best roller coasters in the country, and quite the exciting ride. It\u2019s the only rollercoaster to start out high up in a building and immediately go into a 360-degree loop! The loop wraps around a walkway in the Island of Adventures section of the park, and there\u2019s a large net to catch glasses, hats, and other items people forget to secure. If you do remember to do so, the ride also has a series of small lockers you can use to tuck any such loose items away.<\/p>\n<p>Another great roller coaster for those who love them is \u201cDueling Dragons\u201d; this is actually two roller roller coasters \u2013 one red and one blue \u2013 with a dragon theme. The two rides wind and twist together; you often feel like you\u2019re racing toward the other, and it is quite the rush to ride it.<\/p>\n<p>For roller coaster lovers who have small children, Islands of Adventure has the \u201cFlying Unicorn\u201d. This is a smaller roller coaster, but it still has some great mini thrills to it, and it\u2019s a great way for a family to enjoy a coaster together. Along the same lines as the \u201cUnicorn\u201d, over in Universal Studios is the \u201cWoody Woodpecker Nuthouse Coaster\u201d. It is a wonderful roller coaster to ride with your kids: exciting enough for kids, not too boring for adults, and it lasts long enough to please everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Next, there\u2019s the \u201cRevenge of the Mummy\u201d roller coaster, based on the recent latest version of the story of the mummy; the movies featuring Brendan Fraser. This roller coaster is quite unique in that it is entirely inside a building and it travels both forwards and backwards over the course of the ride.<\/p>\n<p>One of the newest roller coasters in the park is the \u201cHollywood Rip Ride Rockit\u201d. This ride includes several unique elements. It has the highest vertical lift in the world, and the first non-inverting loop. In addition, each rider gets to select a music soundtrack to listen to while they\u2019re on the ride. The list of five songs is constantly updated, and it includes both classic and current rock music. Another unique aspect of the roller coaster is that it has both an off-board and on-board video system to capture the entire experience of your ride. Afterwards, if you want, you can buy a DVD of the event \u2013 complete with the music you selected.<\/p>\n<p>Universal Studios offers a huge range of roller coasters, and they have enough different themes to please just about anyone. Taken together, they represent a great package of roller coasters that will be exciting, entertaining and completely thrilling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Disney World might be more popular with little kids, but Universal Studios has a number of attractions \u2013 among them some incredible roller coasters \u2013 that are incredibly popular with people of all ages.
